history was on his side.

1. His policy of 'perestroyka' led to more openness and ultimately the collapse of the USSR.
2. He was the first soviet leader not personally trained by Stalin.
3. He had to deal with the consequences of the worst nuclear disaster ever (Chernobyl), which could not simply be covered over politically or by secrecy.
4. He admitted the soviet economy had supply and demand problems that needed significant repair.
5. He admitted soviet industry had extreme inefficiency.
6. He requested more honest and open press coverage.
7. he increased the price of a loaf of brad.

In Khrushchev's time discussion of fundamental issues like the merits of Marxism-Leninism and single-party rule-was off-limits.

He wanted to tarnish Stalin's image as a leader and the myths that surrounded him, and detach the 'Stalin Cult.' In doing so, he would not be criticised of being the culprit of the large amount of people that were still in camps, as on their release they would expose the truth of the repressions. In addition to this, by disregarding his role in the purges, he accused the other senior party members, and stated they were more responsible for the crimes committed. Following this further, the speech gave him the opportunity to begin the process of de-Stalinisation, granting him the chance to turn against Stalin's policies with less criticism from Soviet citizens. Also, Khrushchev believed that Stalin's system held further progress to which he could take up the initiative to produce and reform to his creativity of the policies.

There was some relaxation of tension and animosity between the two countries, but not really enough to make much of a difference. The Cold War continued.

Alexey Kosygin succeeded Nikita Krushchev as leader of the Soviet Union on October 14, 1964.

Khrushchev came to power in 1953 after death of J. Stalin. He wasn't as heartless and evil as Stalin, so things changed a bit, while he was ruling.

Most important thing, that he done was let most of the exiled people come back to their home. Also relations with other countries improved.

One of the most characteristic thing to his time was growing of corn. He didn't only recommend, but ordered farmers to grow corn.

All together Kruchchev's time of power was more peaceful than Stalin's and people could breathe up a bit.

On Friday Oct. 26, 1962 Khrushchev sent two letters to President Kennedy.

The first letter was not made public. It was supposedly softer saying Russia would remove its missiles from Cuba if the U.S. would end the quarantine and garantee the U.S. would not invade Cuba. The second letter sounded harsher, seeking the removal of U.S. missiles in Turkey in return for taking Russian missiles out of Cuba.

Khrushchev's reforms were a series of economic and social initiatives that aimed to transform the Soviet Union from a Stalinist state into a more modern and open society. These reforms were enacted during Nikita Khrushchev's leadership of the Soviet Union between 1953 and 1964. The main elements of Khrushchev's reform program included the following:

• Decentralization of the economy and the introduction of more market elements
• Reduction of the state's control over the economy
• Relaxation of censorship and greater freedom of expression
• Greater political and legal rights for citizens
• Reform of the Soviet Union's agricultural policies
• Greater autonomy for the republics within the Soviet Union
• Introduction of new technologies, such as space exploration

Khrushchev's reforms were part of a larger effort to modernize the Soviet Union and make it more competitive with the West. His reforms were largely successful in the short term, but were eventually reversed by later leaders, such as Leonid Brezhnev. Despite this, Khrushchev's reforms remain an important part of Soviet history and their legacy can still be seen in modern Russia.
